This emergency impact wrench can be a lifesaver when you get a flat tire. The impact wrench plugs into your vehicle’s cigarette lighter port and delivers up to 150 ft. lbs. of torque, allowing you to remove most lug nuts! Includes a convenient storage case that conveniently stores in your trunk or hatch for easy access in case of emergency. Change out your tires and get back on the road in minutes with this impact wrench!

I've used this wrench a few dozen times in the last year to do service on GY6 variators and clutches. It's performed flawlessly.

Is it intended for use on heavy equipment like a D9 bulldozer? NO WAY!

Is it intended for use by a garage mechanic to service 20 cars every day all year long? NO WAY!

Is it an excellent low cost tool for a shadetree mechanic, and 100% reliable if treated with a little respect? Mine sure has been!

It's not built for abuse. If you drop it repeatedly, or are very hard on tools, I'm SURE you could break it. I refuse to list this as a "con" because the price. If I had paid three times more than I did I'd be very disapointed. So 5 stars it is.

This seemed to be a nice tool until I actually needed it to change a tire. It hammers as designed, but after a full minute of impacts, the tool was unable to break the lock on the nut. I had the same problem with the other 4 nuts. I think the tool is ingenious, but the bottom line is that you it doesn't have the power to loosen air-tightened lug bolts.

Just purchased and tried it out on my 2006 2500HD Silverado mag wheels. Took a little while to get used to the 1 to 1 1/2 second intervals between impacts but it did the job. Surprised me how much torque a 12V impact can put out.

Bought this about 10yr ago as a backup for travel and around the garage. I used it probably couple times a year, but it's been about 10yr now, so I feel I got more than my moneys worth.

Only issue was that it did stop working about a year ago for no reason. Not sure if there is an internal fuse or what, but whatever it is, that was a year ago and has since worked again w/o any problem. It has enough power to work off any lug nuts, or any other larger cab mounted nuts and bolts (using it while doing body lift on my truck).

Only issue I've noticed is the wiring could be couple ft longer as i usually like to connect via the vehicle battery directly.

Works better than I thought it would. Had no trouble removing studs or lug nuts from BMW or Lexus. Nice long cord and even has a jumper to connect right to battery. Much easier to use than wrench. Buy with confidence from Harbor Freight.

I've used these for the past 7-8 years and have given them as gifts to all the granddaughters and our daughter.

Of course, they're not designed to be used in a shop for a primary impact wrench; they're for emergency, road-side use only. I've removed all four tires within 30 minutes and have never had one falter or fail. With the impact they have, I never use them to put lug nuts on -- they'd be sure to twist off the wheel studs!!

Have one in each of my two vehicles and wouldn't think of driving without one in the trunk!!

I have swapped all four tires on my truck in the snow in a half hour.Pretty nice!Of course you need a breaker bar to start and to finish.Then just spin 'em off and spin 'em on.Has enough power for that.Definitely need to develop technique like anything.I consider these a must have in bad weather and at night driving.

This is a great little tool. It is perfect to just toss in the trunk and use when you have a flat on the road. You can have trouble if someone has overtightented your lug nuts with a big air wrench, but if they are torqued correctly it works great. I would never suggest it as an everyday tool, it's not advertised or designed for that.

I have had this tool for over 10 years. It does not get a lot of use but I carry it in my pickup for changing tires on the road. I have a bad back and so changing tires by hand is not a good idea.

I drive a taxi and I went over to my bosses house and he was changing tires on one of the cabs. He had just bought a cordless impact from a roadside tool truck. He was upset since it wouldn't break the lug loose. He reached for the breaker bar and I told him to wait a minute. I went out to my pickup and grabbed this impact. He looked at it and said that there was no way that it would work. Less than a minute later the tire was off the car and no breaker bar.

I gave it 4 stars because it is slow and will not spin the lugs off you have to wait for the hammer action to hit and the lug spins one or two turns then do it all over again. However in an emergency it gets the job done and saves my back at the same time
